ye, have heard gear change rods and mountings etc comming loose can affect the selection that is what makes me think of these cables, cos just to all of a sudden go bad with no warning etc.
The noise really aint a knocking of any type
just a quiet rattle, at first i thought the guy who did the air con had maybe forgotten to put the valve caps back on and they had fallen down somewhere and where "rattling"
thinking more now some nut on the cables come loose and "rattling" and the cables gone out of adjustment or hanging off or summit.
Whats up with the water pump
Bet it gonna be one of them things now lol, never had a problem with it, now I know it gonna go wrong
lol
Thanks for the answers anyway
